"In order to really enjoy a dog, one doesn't merely try to train him to be semihuman. The point of it is to open oneself to the possibility of becoming partly a dog." Edward Hoagland"Thorns may hurt you, men desert you, sunlight turn to fog; but you're never friendless ever, if you have a dog."

I didn't read what it was about or anything, before I watched it. A few people told me it was good. I figured ..what the heck, I'd rent it. I could turn it off, if I didn't like it. I just assumed it was going to be more circus-ish... and not in a good way. I was VERY pleasantly surprised!

Why is it called a musical? I mean...I know what a musical is and I hate them, but I didn't think those kinds of movies (where too many scenes are sung instead of spoken) were done any more. Is it really a musical?

A lot of it is sung. IMDB classifies it as " Biography, Drama, Musical."
